If you have not traveled by Amtrak for a vacation, perhaps it is time to to give it some consideration. The national train network makes it possible to get around from most major cities. Given how beautiful and interesting our country is, the trip itself can be a big part of the total enjoyment.
One of the most popular vacation destinations is San Diego. The train runs right into the middle of town, with easy local public transportation to get you to your hotel and most of the attractions. San Diego is spread out over a smaller geographical area than other parts of SoCal, notably Los Angeles. You can even get around to a lot of vacation attractions by walking if you enjoy that.
San Diego is really loaded with interesting places to visit. You could really spend weeks at all the museums, historical places of interest, beaches, theme parks and other attractions. So it is safe to assume that you can engage yourself in a week of both relaxation and activity in this harbor city. One of the major features that San Diego offers its guests and residents alike is its wonderful, moderate weather, especially in the summertime.
If you wanted to extend your vacation, it is possible to continue the train travel up to the Los Angeles area, and beyond that up the West Coast. AmTrak runs from the downtown San Diego station to downtown Los Angeles Union Station with a few stops in between. This would make it possible to spend an easy week or two in Southern California without your car.
Don’t forget that a trip by train can add several days on to the total schedule compared to flying, but if you have the right mindset the traveling can be part of the overall enjoyment of the trip.
